Three drones violate Moldovan airspace during attacks on Ukraine

Moldovan airspace was breached three times in a single day by drones, according to regional reports. Moldovan authorities associate the intrusions with an overnight Russian assault on Ukraine that involved 188 drones and missiles as reported by the Ukrainian air force. The specific flight paths and any damage resulting from the incursions remain unconfirmed.
